Space Fantasy #4: Space X Falcon Heavy To Mars! How Do You Like Me Now?

Later this year, SpaceX plans to perform the first test flight of its heavy-lift rocket, known as the Falcon Heavy, with a view to one day taking astronauts to the moon or Mars. And exactly how the rocket will take flight and return to Earth has been detailed in a new promotional video. It shows the huge rocket, which will be the most powerful currently in operation, lifting into orbit before its various boosters autonomously land back at the launch pad.Read More>>>>>>>

Evil Portent For Mars Mission! Mars Desert Research Station Blows Up

A devastating fire has brought to end a mock Mars mission being held in the middle of the Utah desert. The mission involved four 'astronauts' living in isolation for two weeks in the hope of recreating the psychological effects of life on Mars. But instead, they were dealt with a real-life emergency when a devastating fire destroyed the Mars Desert Research Station with flames reaching 10ft (3 metres) high. The Mars Research Society, who runs the missions, said that no one was hurt among the crew who attempted to battle the flames on their own for over an hour. The huge fire was caused by an unusual power surge in their habitat, which is four miles the small town of Hanksville in Utah. Daily Mail Read More>>>>>

On Feast Of The Epiphany NASA Films DEMON Near ISS: The Darksome Atmosphere Is As A Prison To The Demons!

6 January 2015
Feast Of The Epiphany

The darksome atmosphere is as a prison to the demons until the judgment day. They carry fire of hell with them wherever they go. The devils besought the Lord not to cast them into the abyss; for they asked for this, deeming it to be a punishment for them to be cast out of a place where they could injure men. Hence it is stated,They besought Him that He would not expel them out of the country. St Thomas Aquinas

The demons of the air together with the Antichrist will perform great wonders on earth and in the atmosphere, and men will become more and more perverted. Our Lady of La Salette 19 Sept. 1846 (Published by Mélanie 1879) 

For the time has come when the most astonishing wonders will take place on the earth and in the air.Our Lady of La Salette 19 Sept. 1846 (Published by Mélanie 1879)

It is only a question of time before Demons of the air manifest themselves. If Man invades their prison you should expect a visit or two......

'Generally speaking UFO sightings are either explained by some artefact effect - even some space junk - or left unexplained as there is not enough evidence. 'It's difficult to judge from the video in this instance, because of its poor quality. If Nasa has access to high quality images, they may investigate further.'  Daily Mail Read More>>>>>

Space Fantasy #4: Ceres Is One Possible Destination For Human Colonisation Given Its Abundance Of Ice, Water, And Minerals

THE MYSTERIOUS WORLD OF CERES
Ceres is the closest dwarf planet to the sun and is located in the asteroid belt, making it the only dwarf planet in the inner solar system. Ceres is the smallest of the bodies currently classified as a 'dwarf planet'. Scientists think Ceres may have an ocean and possibly an atmosphere. It lies less than three times as far as Earth from the sun - close enough to feel the warmth of the star allowing ice to melt and reform. Nasa's Dawn spacecraft has been making its way to Ceres from the asteroid Vesta since September 2012. It is due to land next year. There is high interest in the mission because Ceres is one possible destination for human colonisation given its abundance of ice, water, and minerals. Daily Mail Read More>>>>>>>

A Mysterious White Spot Glowing On The Surface Of Ceres: The Stars Will Lose Their Regular Motion

Ceres

“The seasons will be altered, the earth will produce nothing but bad fruit, the stars will lose their regular motion, and the moon will only reflect a faint reddish glow Our Lady of La Salette 19 Sept. 1846 (Published by Mélanie 1879)

A mysterious white spot glowing on the surface of Ceres has baffled scientists, who are closing in on the dwarf planet. The 'alien' mark can be clearly seen in the latest images of the icy world as the Dawn probe prepares itself for a rendezvous on March 6. While Nasa has not provided an explanation, scientists suggest it may be a frozen pool of ice at the bottom of a crater that reflects light.'We can confirm that it is something on Ceres that reflects more sunlight, but what that is remains a mystery,' Marc Rayman, mission director and chief engineer for the Dawn mission, told Space.com Over the next weeks, Dawn will provide increasingly sharper images of the icy world, leading up to the spacecraft's capture into orbit around Ceres.

Space Fantasy #3: Kepler Finds Life

Despite being crippled in space, Kepler has managed to discover a star that hosts three Earth-sized planets. The outermost planet orbits in the 'Goldilocks' zone - a region where surface temperatures could be moderate enough for liquid water and perhaps life to exist. At a distance of 150 light years, the star ranks among the top 10 nearest stars known to have transiting planets. Daily Mail Read More>>>>>

Space Fantasy #2: 'Fast Radio Burst' A Way To Communicate With Space Aliens

Astronomers have for the first time seen a 'fast radio burst' – a short, sharp flash of radio waves from an unknown source – tearing through space. The discovery brings scientists a step closer to understanding the strange 'alien' phenomenon, which astronomers worldwide are vying to explain. Lasting only milliseconds, the first such radio burst was discovered in 2007 by astronomers combing the Parkes telescope data archive for unrelated objects. Daily Mail Read>>>>>>>

Delta Flight 2116 Fails - Returns To LAX

The pilots of a Delta Air Lines flight from Los Angeles to Minneapolis declared an emergency soon after takeoff Tuesday when they began having trouble controlling their Boeing 757. Flight 2116 safely returned to Los Angeles International Airport after circling off the Southern California coast for about an hour to burn fuel. There were no reports of injuries among the 152 people on board. One passenger, Nathan Smith, revealed that everyone on the plane was 'unnerved' and that some were in 'tears.' 'It was almost like we were on the water, on a boat,' Smith told KTLA. 'The higher we got, it kind of got worse.' Daily Mail Read More>>>>>>

Dragon Launched But Dragon Failed To Land As Dragons Do.....

SpaceX successfully launched supplies to the International Space Station early Saturday morning, but fell short of its goal of recovering the rocket's leftover components for later reuse. The company's billionaire founder Elon Musk said the first-stage of the unmanned Falcon rocket made it to the platform floating a couple hundred miles off Florida's northeastern coast.  The booster came down too hard and broke apart, he said. 'Close, but no cigar this time,' Musk tweeted. He said it bodes well for the future, though. Daily Mail Read More>>>>>>

Arise, be enlightened, O Jerusalem: for they light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. For behold darkness shall cover the earth, and a mist the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and His glory shall be seen upon thee. And the Gentiles shall walk in thy light, and kings in the brightness of they rising. Lift up thy eyes round about and see: all these are gathered together: they are come to thee: thy sons shall come from afar, and thy daughters shall rise up at thy side. Then shalt Thou see and abound, and thy heart shall wonder and be enlarged, when the multitude of the sea shall be converted to thee, the strength of the Gentiles shall come to thee. The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Madian and Ephesus all they from Saba shall come, bringing gold and frankincense and showing forth their praise to the Lord.

It Is Time; The Sun Is Darkening: Massive Dark Hole Southern Part Of Sun!

Feast Of The Circumcision 

"It is time; the sun is darkening; Faith alone will survive. Our Lady of La Salette 19 Sept. 1846 (Published by Mélanie 1879)

"The seasons will be changed, the earth will produce only bad fruits, the heavenly bodies will lose the regularity of their movements, the moon will reflect only a feeble reddish light; water and fire will lend convulsive motions to the earth's sphere, causing mountains , cities, etc., to be swallowed up. Our Lady of La Salette 19 Sept. 1846 (Published by Mélanie 1879)

Solar Dynamics Observatory Welcomes the New Year

There were no fireworks on the sun to welcome in the New Year and only a few C-class flares during the last day of 2014. Instead, the sun starts 2015 with an enormous coronal hole near the south pole. This image, captured on Jan. 1, 2015 by the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) instrument on NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, shows the coronal hole as a dark region in the south.

Coronal holes are regions of the corona where the magnetic field reaches out into space rather than looping back down onto the surface. Particles moving along those magnetic fields can leave the sun rather than being trapped near the surface. Those trapped particles can heat up and glow, giving us the lovely AIA images. In the parts of the corona where the particles leave the sun, the glow is much dimmer and the coronal hole looks dark.

Coronal holes were first seen in images taken by astronauts on board NASA’s Skylab space station in 1973 and 1974. They can be seen for a long time, although the exact shape changes all the time. The polar coronal hole can remain visible for five years or longer. Each time a coronal hole rotates by the Earth we can measure the particles flowing out of the hole as a high-speed stream, another source of space weather.

Charged particles in the Earth’s radiation belts are accelerated when the high-speed stream runs into the Earth’s magnetosphere. The acceleration of particles in the magnetosphere is studied by NASA’s Van Allen Probes mission. As Solar Cycle 24 fades, the number of flares each day will get smaller, but the coronal holes provide another source of space weather that needs to be understood and predicted. NASA

AirAsia QZ8501 Hit By Falling Space Junk/Debris All Souls Perish!

For the time has come when the most astonishing wonders will take place on the earth and in the air.Our Lady of La Salette 19 Sept. 1846 (Published by Mélanie 1879)

Giving the flight crew the benefit of the doubt that the downing of the plane was not a deliberate Muslim terrorist act committing by the Muslim pilot - the next possible scenario is that the plane was hit by falling space debris or junk.

According to some accounts - none of the bodies were wearing life jackets - none had time to put them on:

So far, however, the bodies that have been found didn’t have life jackets on, a sign that there was no attempt to make a controlled ditching, Paul Hayes, safety director at London-based aviation consulting company Ascend Worldwide Miami Herald.

What may have caused such a quick disaster to the plane may have been something that hit the plane from above. Time will tell if this is the most reasonable explantion.

Just how dangerous is falling space junk/debris?

Here is a cartoon from eesa on the dangers of space junk orbiting the earth:

A total of seven bodies have been found and one was wearing a life vest. Many of the bodies will wash upon shore in the days and weeks to come.

Some say that the plane hit the water intact.

Again time will tell if it was falling space debris that struck the plane.....

Even Godless Space Scientists Break Down & Cry Like A Bitch! Rosetta Scientist Dr Matt Taylor Cries Over a Shirt He Wore!

The scientist who caused a furore by wearing a sexist shirt as he gave a progress report on the Rosetta mission on Wednesday has made an emotional apology for his “big mistake”. Matt Taylor was more plainly dressed on Friday as he broke down in tears at a briefing, apparently struggling to speak before confessing: “I made a big mistake and I offended many people, and I am very sorry about this.” Taylor’s gaudy clothing, including images of semi-naked women, sparked a row over his wardrobe and infuriated fellow scientists. His apology during an update on the progress of the European Space Agency mission was greeted sympathetically by particle physicist Clara Nellist. “Impressed with Taylor from @ESA_Rosetta for admitting shirt choice was a mistake. Takes strength of character.” The Guardian>>>>>>>>

Sir Richard Branson's Christmas Dreams Crushed: Admits That He Has Abandoned Hope Of Space Travel!

End Of Space Travel

Couple of things
1. Upper atmosphere is the habitat for demons - so says St.Thomas Aquinas so its best to stay away from that region.
2. There is a boundary that God established that man must not pass over and that is 29.050 ft or 15 cubits above the mountain tops - so says St.Thomas Aquinas

Sir Richard Branson has violated both and has been punished for it.

I never expect Branson to get his Christmas wish. But it would have been interesting if  Sir Richard Branson was able to take off for space with celebrities in tow only to crash and burn - that would have been more dramatic...

Here is the mea cupla of Sir Richard Branson:

Reflections on Virgin Galactic

After sending this message to all of our Virgin Galactic future astronauts, I wanted to share it publicly, to show what an incredible difference everyone’s support has made to all the team.

For all of us in the Virgin Galactic family, I’m sure 2014 will sadly be defined by that fateful moment on an October Friday, when excitement and eager anticipation, turned in an instant, to disbelief and shock.

The following morning surrounded by our wonderful and talented team in Mojave, I said that humanity's greatest achievements often come out of our greatest pain and, having had a few weeks to think things over, I believe that now, more than ever.

Part of the reason I do, is that an event such as we have just experienced, brings out the best of so many people in so many ways. We have had some pretty hairy moments in some of our previous adventures, from ballooning that didn’t quite go to plan to a mid-Atlantic sinking, but I, and am sure many others involved, have never experienced anything quite as intense as the destruction of our spaceship and the heart-breaking loss of its pilot.

As I travelled from my home to Mojave that Friday evening, I found myself questioning seriously for the first time, whether in fact it was right to be backing the development of something that could result in such tragic circumstances. In short – was Virgin Galactic and everything it has stood for and dreamt of achieving, really worth it?

I got a very firm answer to that question immediately when I landed in Mojave. From the designers, the builders, the engineers, the pilots and the whole community who passionately believed - and still believe - that truly opening space and making it accessible and safe is of vital importance to all our futures.

I heard the same, heartfelt message at the incredibly moving memorial service for Mike Alsbury a week later and I heard and saw it in the thousands of messages that poured into my office from all around the world – and in one case, even beyond the world, from the astronauts on the International Space Station. I also heard, and saw, and felt it, from our Future Astronauts in an outpouring of support and solidarity which was at once humbling and uplifting.

When this story is told in years to come, I believe alongside the bravery of Mike and the incredible tale of Pete’s survival, will stand the story of the commitment, loyalty and passion of the world’s first private astronauts. And so Virgin Galactic goes on, with an unwavering commitment to safety and a renewed sense of purpose.

Thanks to everyone who has supported Virgin Galactic in 2014 and here’s to the next chapter in 2015.
